This is a Zoo that people should really see. There animals seem very happy and very well taken care of.

This zoo is great to take the kids to. Beware, though that there are a bunch of kiddie rides situated right outside the entrance. So if your kids love to go on the little train rides, you might get stuck here and never enter the park.
We liked the giraffes and the elephants.
The concession stands get pretty crowded at lunchtime and there usually isn't enough seating or shade.

We've only been here once but we have a good time. There aren't that many animals but they have enough to keep the kids interested. They also have a pretty good little train ride (a must for the boys) and a little amusement part area. The one draw back is that there is only one place to eat so your choice is quite limited.

This zoo is just the right size for small children. There are lots of animals to see but not so many that you feel like you have to skip sections. The lions can be a little hard to spot, but it's nice that they have some space. The train and other rides add an extra bit of fun to the zoo visit. The childrens petting zoo was recently redone.
PROS: just the right size
CONS: the lion can be hard to spot

Suprisingly one of the better zoos on the west coast. Located in a large park area the Oakland zoo has several exhibits and attractions for all ages. Bording on the large size there are pleanty of exhibits to see. Great price, friendly service but some hills so wear good shoes.
PROS: Large size, lots of exhibits.
CONS:

This zoo is not as big as the San Francisco zoo, but it is definitely worth visiting. The place is clean and well-maintained. The staff is helpful if you have any questions. And my kids absolutely loved it. Since it is closer to me than San Francisco zoo, I prefer going here.

Nice sized zoo in Oakland, its not the most modern or well kept up but they had some surprisingly good exhibits. Really kid friendly as there is a playground area with rides, including a sky car thingy, like at Disneyland. I think only costs $1 to ride. Only negative is somewhat hard to find, up in the hills, not a lot of signs. Plenty of parking. The zoo store was in a trailer and small, but had all the standard items. I would highly recommend.
